The rear for the volks might fit, will be close but the front will not fit.

2nd set will definitely not fit.

With Seva's people usually get the +40 offset option and use spacers to make them fit flush.

why wouldnt the volks fit? i have 19 9.5+55 and had 25mm spacers so their basically +30 right now and it only sticks out about less than 1/2 inch.

yea and a +24 will stick out more then half an inch, which is alot, unless the OP wants to pull the fenders and run a lot of camber up front.

The +24 is a G35 offset and sticks out quite a bit on a G37 (some one posted pictures few months ago I think), I have 9.5 +35 in the front and they barely tuck in. if your +30 sticks out meaning a +24 would stick out even more, which I thought means that it doesn't fit.

You can use a 20mm spacer instead of +25 and you should be pretty flush, maybe even a 15mm spacer.

If sticking out is fine, then really anything should fit... just doesn't look normal.

Really I think you could get either to just barely fit with some work. May stick out a few MM but thats it with some camber dialed in.

There are pictures floating around of the S-22 in that offset. It does not look good. Not even close in the rear.

The GT-V just isn't optimal sizing for the G37.

yes its not but if you like your tires to stick out about 1/2 inches all around, they would fit. my rears are 10.5 +30 and they only sit out around 1/2. its not too bad, i thought it would stick out like an inch or something. if you like the wheels, just get it, sure they will stick out, but who would look at the sticking out ness if your car is moving with flames coming out from the exhaust?

I like wheels to be at the fender line as well, but the Sevas are too far out IMO.

found the pic of the sevas +25 rear.

This is what a little less then 3/4 of an inch looks like sticking out with no camber.
